BREEAM Education

BREEAM Education helps schools and further education colleges to set environmental targets for new and refurbished education buildings. It also serves as a useful tool for designers by demonstrating the environmental performance of their designs.

Assessments can be carried out at the design stage and verified post construction for primary and secondary schools and further education colleges including the following:

• New Schools
• Major refurbishment projects
• Extensions

If you would like to learn more about how BREEAM Education works and what specific issues it takes into account you can download a full copy of the BREEAM Education manual from the Extranet for the BREEAM Education Manual.

BRE run training courses for assessors and awareness raising seminars. See below for more information.

The development of BREEAM Education was driven by the sustainable development action plan, which called for both new build and refurbishment projects to achieve no less than a BREEAM ‘VERY GOOD’ rating.
